Forbes Was Last Coach to Talk to Selby Before Decision

Colleges Wait to Hear Their Name Called by Elite Recruit - NYTimes.com

This article was published today.

Quote:
Last Friday evening, Josh Selby, the nation’s most explosive high school guard yet to commit to a college, walked out the back door of Lake Clifton High School here with the Tennessee assistant Steve Forbes. The two kept chatting as they approached a light-blue Mercedes-Benz with tinted windows. Selby, keys in hand, popped the trunk, threw sneakers in it and joked with Forbes. Selby said goodbye, and drove away. It was Selby’s last visit from a coach before making his college decision.

Talk at Jordan Brand practice indicates good news coming for KU, Kentucky / LJWorld.com

This did not make me feel any good about our chances

A couple hours ago, I had pretty much accepted he was going to KU. Now, I have a little bit of optimism with some of the rumors and NY Times article.

However it turns out, this kid has loved the attention and there are going to be some happy fans and some extremely ticked off fans.

He is going to KU until I hear otherwise.

And it's a shame cause that article makes him sound like a world-beater. Dang!
